searching

heading east of the full moon
sand dunes play upon me like violins
i seek my lodestar
persistent, digging
finding something
finding nothing
finding the end of tomorrow
twilight has left me alone
with the moon
it whispers to me
i forgot why i’m here
was it for lust
was it for love
was it for the mirage
that called my name
nothing really sticks
feet sinking into the quick
the moon watches
it points
head east it says
sinking into the quick
violins play my last song
